hmm i never really pay attention to the time aspect of it, ive never times myself

i doubt i can get close to 26 seconds anyways:amazed:

was that 1 card draw?, because that style is gay solitaire imo
lol, nah. He hates 1 card draw, so do I. IMO, that's cheating lol.

Got solitaire on my iphone and it's bloody addictive. Also i didnt realise there were hundreds of different styles of solitaire. I learn a new one everytime i play lol

Your proccesor is letting you down, You need a dual core to run most games these days.

Ah it might need abit of an overclock then might be bottlenecking, Other then that i have no clue mabe its your ram or you need a fresh install of windows, What wattage is your powersuply rated at mabe its not giving enough juice to the 9800gts.

yeh im getting a 10k hdd too when i do my upgrade. Im surprised your OS is still on IDE. LOL, the jump from that to raptor will be huge.


I might get some tips off ya when i upgrade. I also have the same PSU as you.

Was contemplating i7 920, but the E8500 is just as fast. Also the i7 mobo's ar pretty expensive.

Im gunna get a new....

Case - most likey antec 900
Mobo - something gigabte
CPU - E8500 or 920
RAM - dunno yet
HDD - Raptor

Keep my PSU, Video card and i have like 4 hdds, 80GB, 250GB, 400GB, 1TB all sataII

The e8500s an excellent overclocker, The i7s are boards are overpriced but there good if your looking to go with a ddr3 setup, If your building it for gaming youl be fine with a e8500/e8600 ddr2 set up.
